Lyrics Here Tonight - Dar Williams

Here Tonight

Twenty different dresses across my bed
So many questions inside my head
A simple dinner that I cooked for hours
He brings a mason jar and a bunch of flowers
The storm is coming
Over on the mountain is flashing light
I could swear I’m feeling it here tonight
Just a little bit
I know I have been wrong
The wind is picking up, but we don’t say a thing
What if I’m the only one who feels it happening?
The leaves are all aflutter on the lilac tree
He’s sitting at the table, and he’s looking at me
The storm is coming
And my heart says
Girl you gotta know
That it’s all coming down, coming down
Over on the mountain is flashing light
I could swear I’m feeling it here tonight
Just a little bit
I know I have been wrong
Tell me is it time, can I let the wind blow
Open up my heart like a window
Just a little bit
Like a window
Just a little bit
It’s out on the horizon, but it’s coming near
He stands behind me and whispers in my ear
«The storm is coming»
Over on the mountain is flashing light
I could swear I’m feeling it here tonight
Just a little bit
I know I can’t be wrong
Tell me is it time, can I let the wind blow
Open up my heart like a window
Just a little bit
Like a window
Just a little bit
Like a window, just a little bit
